Videos are a bit tougher to sell unless they are very good and the budgets would be high for them. Like the Internet the medium to low end DVD market is saturated. But you might again consider brokering them.

Shooting for yourself means you keep the rights and do not give it away. Use the exclusive to pay the bills today and the non exclusive to build for tomorrow. That way you are the master of your destiny.
Thanks for the advice Paul - definitely some things to consider there
